Before You Begin

Set up Pay Codes for anything that will be a benefit such as Vacation, Sick Time, Unpaid Absence, Bereavement, etc. Then you'll select the codes that are benefits as explained below.

Getting There

1. From the Procare Home screen click Configuration > System.
2. Go to Accounting Management > Employee Data > dbl-click Benefit Codes.

Benefit Codes

1. To create a new Benefit Code:
   1. Click the top (blank) line and select an existing Pay Code from the list like “Vacation”.
   2. Enter the percentage at which benefits for this pay code are paid, for example 100% of their normal hourly rate. Their normal rate is determined by the Hourly Pay Code checked for Benefits on the Employee Pay Rate screen.

   Hint: To record unpaid time off make a benefit code such as "Unpaid Absence" set to zero percent (paid out at 0% of their normal hourly rate).

   3. If you’d like this benefit to be included on payroll check stubs place a check mark in the Check Stub box (requires Payroll module).
   4. Tap Enter (on your keyboard) until a new blank line appears and continue adding new Benefit Codes.
       
2. Use the Up & Down arrows to change their order as needed, then click Save > Exit.
